POWDER COATING

Electrostatic powder coating can be used on a variety of metallic substrates to give an aesthetically pleasing and durable finish. Powders have differing properties to suit all applications.

  • Epoxy polyester powder coating is suited for internal use where UV resistance is not required.
  • Polyester powder coating is suited for external use for applications such as fencing, motor cycle parts and cladding (click here for motor cycle coating flyer)
  • Nylon coating offers: impact resistance, oil/ solvent and general chemical resistance.
  • As a service first associate we also offer the Cromadex ‘extra life’ range of products. The life expectancy in a moderate external environment can be up to 16 years.

WET PAINT SYSTEMS

 We offer wet paint systems to suit all environments, the systems can include:

Shot blasting

A blast-cleaned substrate is an ideal base to accept coating systems. Whether the customer opts for our ‘extra life’ package including Interpon PZ770 anti corrosive powder coat primer (with an Interpon 610 or ‘D’ rated polyester powder coat.) Or a Zinc spray you can be sure you have an excellent barrier to prevent corrosion.

 

2 pack polyurethane

This is formulated to have good exterior durability, good gloss and colour retention and is ideal for interior and exterior use.

 

Stove enamelling

The stove enamelling process involves the spraying of special stove enamelling paint onto an object, which is then placed in an oven and heated to a specific temperature for a specific amount of time. This fast curing of the paint allows stoving paint to be applied in relatively thick coats to achieve an aesthetically pleasing, durable high gloss finish.
